Hey! My name is Matt and I’m a UX/UI designer by day, and a content creator during all the other hours.
Growing up, I’ve always had a passion for design and technology. I played a lot of video games such as MapleStory and CS:GO.
I watched a lot of anime (my favourite being the Gundam series) and messed about with graphic design in Photoshop.
I went to school for Civil Engineering and absolutely hated it. In my third year of school, I realised I wanted to work in tech, and after graduating I put in a lot of effort to make this happen.
Matt spent a lot of hours after work studying UX/UI — from YouTube tutorials to practising the methods with fictitious designs
Eventually, I made my way to where I am today.
I’ve been fortunate enough to design and create consumer-focused solutions in different industries such as social media, e-commerce, fintech, medtech, and customer support.
During the time of this interview, I work for an airline company based in Toronto.
My role is to help design the experiences around mobile apps.
The main priority right now is to deliver the minimal viable product in time for when we start flying again.
In my spare time, I am focusing on building my YouTube page, where I attempt to merge cinematics and food, in a comedic format.
